Soldiers are self-disciplined, and famous generals are even more so. Wu Sangui has the habit of getting up early to practice patrolling the city. When the sky was slightly light, he got up and punched several times in the courtyard. His body became hot and the bruises and pain suddenly subsided.
After washing up and having some breakfast, he led his servants to the city for inspection.
The wind and snow have stopped, the cold has become even more intense, and the water has turned into ice. The snow on the city has been cleared. Several groups of soldiers were patrolling back and forth with their necks hunched and shivering. When they saw the commander-in-chief coming to the city, they quickly saluted.
Wu Sangui climbed the city and looked into the distance. He looked towards the north. The sky and the earth were all gray. The beacon tower on the first mountain was no different. He took a long breath and walked westward along the city wall.
Suddenly he raised his eyebrows and walked quickly to the top of the Yongning Gate of the west gate. He saw a cavalry heading straight to the general platform due west.
During the war, the city gates were prohibited from being opened at will, and it was too early to open the city. Who was leaving the city?
The answer is self-evident. He is the only one who can open the city gate.
Governor of the East Factory!
The mountains to the northwest of Ningyuan City are vast, but on the plain more than ten miles due west, there are only a few peaks named Heifeng Mountain, Taishan... The locals collectively call them Xishan.
There is a general platform at the foot of the West Mountain. It is very old and its origin is unknown. It is also said that this general platform was a temple platform, because at this time there was a dilapidated and simple tile temple next to it, which worshiped an unknown god and a stone furnace.
There is still some incense ash left in it. It seems that this immortal has some good luck and will not drink the northwest wind.
Chang Yu didn't believe in ghosts and gods. In these turbulent years, he only believed in his fists and the sword in his hand, so he never looked directly at the angry King Kong god from the moment he stood on the general stage.
The entire Gongzi camp left the city, including the servants.
five kilometer trail run
Repeat three sets of military boxing more than ten times.
Practice swordsmanship, three hundred times in each style.
Mounted shooting...
The morning exercise schedule was full of photos, and there was a lot of mud under the stage.
On the general stage, Chang Yu, dressed in thin clothes, hacked, chopped, and teased with a single sword, repeating boringly and monotonously. Li Tiezhu's three confidants beside him followed the drill, and beads of sweat appeared on everyone's forehead.
On the other side of the commanding platform, Wuzhong's long sword was shining brightly, and he was extremely serious about every move. Behind him, more than two hundred servants were learning the sword from him. The young eunuch said that if he can teach these two hundred servants well, they will be his soldiers.
Every man dreams of commanding an army, and Wuzhong is no exception.
There is a dead tree in front of the ruined temple. Chang Yu wraps his hands with cloth and punches, kicks or kicks him very quickly, as if he has a deep hatred for a tree. If outsiders see it, they might think he is crazy, but people in Gongziying have long been used to it.
When Wuzhong saw it, he took it for granted. Bajiquan also practiced wooden stakes, one to practice punching strength, the other to practice boxing speed, and the third to resist blows in succession.
More than ten horses came rushing from the city, but it was Wu Sangui who came to see the fun.
They didn't get close at first, but from a distance they could see the eunuchs from the Gongzi camp practicing their swordsmanship, slashing, hacking, and lifting. Each move was accompanied by an angry roar, which was overwhelming.
Seeing Wuzhong practicing swordsmanship with his servants again, his brows became serious.
Until I saw the little eunuch beating a dead tree like crazy, sweating like rain, the scene was very scary.
Suddenly feeling curious, he rode closer.
Chang Yu's thin clothes were soaked, and he panted heavily and glanced sideways: "Good morning, Mr. Wu."
"Ashamed, ashamed, I thought I had enough self-discipline, but I never thought that the governor would dance at the sound of a chicken at three o'clock. This is really embarrassing for me." Wu Sangui did feel admiration in his heart, regardless of whether the little eunuch meant to show it to him or not.
But this scene is real. I think these eunuchs traveled long distances yesterday, worked hard in boats and carriages, but got up early in the morning to practice. At this time, they were obviously exhausted, but they still gritted their teeth and persisted. This shows that their determination is strong. If it were not for daily training,
It is simply impossible for military discipline to be as strict as it is.
"My family's face turned red when General Wu said it. We danced when we heard the chicken. If it hadn't been for the winter sun, our family just couldn't stay in bed!"
While the little eunuch was joking, he suddenly raised his brows and looked into the distance. Wu Sangui looked around and saw several fast horses approaching. He also frowned because he saw an acquaintance.
"Let go of our family, do you know who our family is?" A few horses came to the front, leaving one person behind, who was lying in the mud, struggling and cursing.
He is fair-faced and beardless, about forty years old, and well maintained.
"Wu Sangui, what do you mean? Our family is the supervisor of the emperor. Are you going to rebel?" It turns out that this person is Cao Yong, the supervisor of Ningyuan.
Wu Sangui was stunned, what the hell did he do to me? Just when he was about to speak, someone beat him to it.
"Don't drink unless it's fine wine, don't eat unless it's delicacies, don't wear fur unless it's a fur coat, don't sleep unless it's a beauty, Eunuch Cao, it's a blessing for the emperor to ask you to supervise the army!"
The little eunuch reached out and took the clothes from Fan Jiaqian and walked over while putting them on, with a half-smile on his face, but it was very cold.
"Who are you? How dare you talk to our family like this?" Cao Yongyong recognized the young man in front of him.
"Eunuch Cao has such great official power. I am the commander-in-chief of Dongchang. I came to Ningyuan to supervise the army on the emperor's order. I want to say hello to you today." The little eunuch sneered and came closer.
Cao Yong was startled, and his face was full of doubts: "Dongchang Governor? Governor, why haven't our family heard of it?"
"Eunuch Cao spends his days drinking and enjoying himself in Wenwen Village. He doesn't hear anything going on outside the window. He certainly didn't hear about it." Chang Yu said and glanced at Wu Sangui.
Wu Sangui's eyes evaded and he secretly took a breath of air.
The system of military supervision was originally used by the emperor to contain and monitor the generals of the external military. The original intention was not very fair, but later it became an extremely dirty thing. Either the ignorant and worthless eunuchs used chicken feathers as arrows, dictating the military and doing whatever they wanted.
One pass leads to irreversible defeat. There are many examples of this. Another example is that the supervisory army is bribed by the generals and relies on the generals to only eat, drink and have fun, losing their own functions. Cao Yong is such an example.
"The young eunuch is guilty, please let the governor spare him once." Seeing Wu Sangui's expression, Cao Yong knew that what the young eunuch said was true. At this time, it was too late to marvel that he was in a high position at such a young age, so he quickly begged for mercy.
"Since you know you are guilty, let's die." Chang Yu sneered, and with a snap, he pulled out the waist knife of an attendant beside him. The sword flashed, and Cao Yong didn't even have time to scream. His head was split open by the knife, and blood covered his brain.
splash.
Wu Sangui was shocked and killed him immediately. His attack was like lightning, and he didn't even have time to dissuade him.
The dignified imperial court supervisor, he killed him as soon as he said so!
He couldn't help but smile bitterly on his face: "It is rumored that the governor was killing thieves in Taiyuan, and he was so ruthless that it made people's faces change. It's hard to imagine that he could kill his own people so neatly."
Hey hey hey, the little eunuch glanced at him sideways and smiled very horribly: "If you want to talk about being ruthless, who can compare to Mr. Wu's uncle?"
The smile on Wu Sangui's face immediately condensed.
Zu Dashou, Wu Sangui's uncle, the God of War in Liaodong guarded the border of the Ming Dynasty. He had great military exploits throughout his life, was a strong-willed general, and was a general who fought to the death for the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
In the fourth year of Chongzhen's reign, they were besieged at the Battle of Daling River. When all the food was exhausted, the horses were killed, and the horses were eaten by people. "The bones were cooked and the bones were analyzed, which was unheard of in ancient times." Human bones were burned as firewood and human flesh was roasted and eaten.
During the Song-Jin War, Jinzhou was besieged. All the food and grass were exhausted, but the horses were killed, and all the horses were eaten by the people...
Let me ask you if he is ruthless!
Chang Yu mentioned this matter at this time, seemingly casually, but in fact it was a tough attack on Wu Sangui, obviously expressing his dissatisfaction with his connivance in bribery of Cao Yong.
But Wu Sangui had more on his mind. Since his ancestor's birthday had passed, Chang Yu's mention of this matter at this time was no longer as simple as blaming Cao Yong, but more of mocking him.
Furthermore, he killed the supervisor Cao Yong when he disagreed with him. This was obviously killing the chicken to scare the monkeys.
If letting the attendants sweep all the generals under his command yesterday was a show of authority, then killing Cao Yong today is a show of authority!
The clay figures are all very angry. The dignified General Ningyuan holds the most sophisticated cavalry of the Ming Dynasty and is the most powerful in the army. How can he stand such teasing! He can't stand this kind of expression, even if the other party is the governor of Dongchang.
how?
With a snap, a horse-tethering post as thick as a bowl was kicked off by Wu Sangui. He cupped his hands and said, "Yesterday I saw the governor's agility in movement, and today I see the speed in his boxing. I am itching to use my technique at the end, so I dare you to give me some advice."
"Since Mr. Wu is so interested, how can I be a spoiler?" Chang Yu casually unbuttoned the coat he just put on, sneered and pointed at the general: "Please, Mr. Wu!"
"Master, please enlighten me." Wu Sangui said no more and jumped up to the commander's platform.
